This document outlines an assessment task for PYP 6A students involving a case study on cross-cultural understanding. Students are asked to create a problem-solution chart analyzing a case where a person from Indonesia gets into a physical altercation in Macau and faces legal consequences due to cultural differences in conflict resolution norms between the two places. The best solution identified is for travelers to educate themselves on local rules to avoid legal issues stemming from cultural misunderstandings.
